. Column A--Anytown <br /> This is the name of your city <br /> Column B-250,000. . <br /> This is the 1997 value used for identifying homesteads in your city that were above this <br /> hurdle number. This hurdle number was the result of multiplying the base value (see <br /> above for the definition of the base value)times the CPI change from 1995 to 1997. <br /> Column C---255,736 <br /> This is the 1998 value used for identifying homesteads in your city that were above this <br /> hurdle number. ,It is exactly like Column B, except the CPI change is now from 1995 to <br /> 1998. <br /> Column D-2009000 <br /> This is the 1995 sum of all houses having values above the base value. It represents only <br /> those houses that were above the base value, and reflects only the amount left over after <br /> subtracting the base value from each house valuation. For example: If a high priced <br /> house had a value of 1240,000 and the base value for the city was 1211,000, then that <br /> high priced house had an excess of 5,000 ( 240,000-- 235,000_ 5,000 ). The original <br /> amount does not change. This original figure is used to determine if your city has had <br /> any growth in high priced homes since 1995. <br /> Column E-250,000 <br /> This is the 1998 sum of the high priced homes having values above the current hurdle <br /> rate found in Column C. Like Column D, it represents only the excess amounts not the <br /> entire home value. <br /> Column F-50,000 <br /> Quite simply this is Column F.minus Column E. If your city has added higher priced <br /> homes since 1995 you will have a balance in this column. If your city has not seen an <br /> increase in the higher priced homes since 1995 there will be no balance in this column. <br /> There is no negative balance in this column. All negative values become zero. This figure <br /> is the basis for all subsequent calculations on this form. <br /> Column G-12,500.00 <br /> This number is your increased growth in higher priced homes ( Column F ) multiplied by <br /> your city's local tax rate (Column K). It represents the extra property taxes received by <br /> . your city on the higher priced homes identified in Column E. <br />
